Treatment of ophthalmic uveitis in Xi'an
Uveitis is a common ophthalmic disease, which brings great trouble to patients' life. As a famous historical and cultural city in China, Xi'an has a world-class eye hospital. It is very important for Xi'an patients to choose appropriate treatment methods. Next, we will introduce the treatment methods of Xi'an ophthalmic uveitis from the aspects of drug treatment, surgical treatment, phototherapy and TCM treatment.
medication
Drug therapy is one of the routine treatments for uveitis. The drugs widely used in Xi'an eye hospitals include antibiotics, steroids and immunosuppressants.
First, antibiotics can effectively control the infection of uveitis. Doctors will choose appropriate antibiotic eyedrops or oral drugs according to the specific conditions of patients. Antibiotics can kill bacteria, alleviate inflammatory symptoms, and promote the recovery of eyeballs.
Secondly, steroids are also one of the important drugs to treat uveitis. Steroids can inhibit immune response, reduce eye inflammation, relieve pain and visual problems. However, the use of steroids requires the guidance and monitoring of doctors to avoid potential side effects.
In addition, immunosuppressants are also an option in drug therapy. Immunosuppressants can inhibit the abnormal reaction of the immune system to the eyes and alleviate the symptoms of uveitis. However, the use of immunosuppressants needs to be careful and must be monitored by doctors to avoid potential risks.
surgical treatment
If drug treatment cannot effectively control uveitis, or serious visual impairment occurs, doctors may consider surgical treatment.
In Xi'an Eye Hospital, common surgical treatments include laser therapy and surgical resection of pathological tissues. Laser treatment can alleviate inflammatory reaction by reducing the number of inflammatory cells, and promote the recovery of the eyeball. Surgical resection of pathological tissue is to completely remove pathological substances and reduce inflammation.
Surgical treatment has the advantages of less trauma and faster recovery. However, surgical treatment is not applicable to all patients with uveitis. Doctors will decide whether to operate according to the specific conditions of patients.
Phototherapy
Phototherapy is an auxiliary treatment method, which can be carried out simultaneously with drug therapy. The commonly used phototherapy methods in Xi'an eye hospitals include ultraviolet radiation and laser radiation.
Ultraviolet radiation can reduce inflammation by killing bacteria and inhibiting immune response. The advantages of ultraviolet radiation in the treatment of uveitis are non-invasive and safe, but it needs to be persisted for a long time. Laser irradiation can reduce pathological tissue, alleviate inflammatory reaction, and promote the recovery of eyeball.
TCM treatment
In Xi'an Eye Hospital, TCM treatment is also an option for uveitis treatment. TCM treatment achieves the goal of treating uveitis by adjusting the balance of yin and yang in the human body, promoting blood circulation and circulation of qi and blood, and improving immune function.
Common TCM treatments include Chinese herbal decoction, Chinese herbal plaster and acupuncture. These treatment methods have mild efficacy and small side effects, especially suitable for those patients who are not suitable for drug treatment.
To sum up, Xi'an Eye Hospital provides a variety of methods to treat uveitis, including drug therapy, surgery, phototherapy and traditional Chinese medicine. Patients can choose appropriate treatment methods according to their own conditions. In the process of treatment, patients should actively cooperate with the guidance of doctors and adhere to treatment to achieve better results.
